Friday Enrichment

This is one of the most unique aspects of life at ACL! Our goals for Fridays are to:

build practical skills;

complement our curriculum;

explore our area and beyond;

learn to work as a team;

exercise;

have fun;

take risks;

do good for others;

learn more about God and ourselves; and

promote a sense of adventure.

Friday Enrichment includes many activities, such as full day sports, hiking at one of the many Columbia County conservation areas, working on a community serviceproject, taking a trip to New York City, attending a movie or the theater, or just having some fun at a corn maze.

Parents and siblings are encouraged to participate in the Friday program whenever they can (when the activity is age-appropriate for younger siblings). We are a family focused school, and these events bring families together and allow parents to get to know the teachers and other students. Most Friday activities are optional, so this also gives students a day to catch up, and families an extra day to plan a trip or personal appointments. Fridays always leave a memorable impression on both students and parents!
